Chapter 80: Concealment
"Princess, what's wrong?"
Ah Jian stepped forward and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with a sweat towel, her eyes were full of panic, and she looked anxiously at the flickering candlelight in front of her, and her heart rose and fell one after another.
"Help me up, I'm going to jail." She lifted the futon and rested her feet on the clogs under the bed, her tone impatient.
"At this hour, you are going to find the Fifth Prince?" Ah Jian grabbed the sweat towel in his hand and looked at her puzzled, it was not yet dawn outside, and it was late at night.
"Yes, I'm going to ask him personally." Her feet stirred back and forth to put on the clogs that lay on the ground.
Ah Jian hurriedly put in the sweat towel in his hand, squatted down to help her put on the clogs, and then found a cloak, wrapped it around her, and escorted her out of the door of the dormitory.
Walking outside, she took the night lamp from the palace maid on the side, and walked forward with her with the lamp. The two palace maids guarding outside the dormitory looked at the master and servant who walked forward in confusion.
The night was as cold as water, and Yu Qiqi felt that a cold wind poured into her neck every step she took, making her shrink her neck. Ah Jian had to exert his strength to protect her tighter.
When she walked outside the prison, she asked, "Does the princess also suspect the emperor?" β
"I don't know, I'm always panicking, I want to ask him personally." Yu Qiqi blinked, and the helplessness in his eyes had not yet dissipated.
"The slave went in with the princess."
After Ah Jian finished speaking, he helped her to go inside.
The prison was very shady, and the walls on both sides were shelved with wax and candlelight, but the light was still dim, and Ah Jian protected her and walked down the steps step by step.
Yu Zhengyan heard the sound of movement, slowly sat up from the dry straw mat, he just fixed his eyes, he saw Yu Qiqi walking towards him, the dim light shrouded her cheeks, so that he couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, but her sparkling eyes, he could see clearly, with hatred and anger in them.
"Seventh sister..."
He was the first to call her.
"Do you regret it?" Her illness was not yet healed, and there was a hint of hoarseness in her voice.
"It's useless to regret it, if you are willing to spare me, I will be satisfied." He thought she was going to kill him, but now that he could live in this prison, he was content.
"I want you to stay in this dark prison for the rest of your life, and you will never be able to get out." Like her children, buried in the ground, in the cold dust.
"I didn't expect that losing that child would make you so painful." Yu Zhengyan stared at her, his eyes flashed slightly, and his words were full of remorse.
"That's not the meat that fell from you, you naturally won't understand!" Yu Qiqi's eyes were filled with tears, mixed with clearly visible anger.
At this point, Yu Zhengyan could only bow his head in frustration, not knowing what to say.
"My father has high hopes for you, he intends to pass on the throne of Nanzhao to you, I can't imagine that you will do such a thing that humiliates the royal family, I should let my father cut you with a thousand knives, when our Nanzhao royal family has never had you."
She grabbed Ah Jian's wrist, eager to scold everything she could say to him, so that her heart could feel better.
"Seventh sister, scold if you want, I have nothing to say, as long as your heart can be better." At this moment, he is showing the side that he should have as an older brother.
Her tears ran down her cheeks, hot and hot, and her eyes stared at him viciously, and it took a moment for her sobs to fade.
She stared at him and asked coldly, "Is there a false sentence about what you said in my bedroom that day, and what you confessed in front of my father?" β
Enduring the sharp pain in her heart, she asked what she wanted to ask him when she came here tonight.
Yu Zhengyan slowly raised his head, looked at her tear-blurred cheeks, and his eyes were firm, "I dare to swear to God, there is not a single lie in those words I said." β
Suddenly, it was as if a basin of cold water was poured down the top of Yu Qiqi's head, making her soaking wet and chilling.
Her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground.
"Princess!"
Fortunately, Ah Jian held her hard.
"Seventh sister!"
Yu Zhengyan also shouted, looking flustered and distressed.
"You'd better not lie to me!" She stood up slightly, her eyes raised slightly, and her words were ruthless, without the slightest warmth.
On the way out of prison, the heart on her heart beat faster and faster, and endless panic came to her, causing a layer of cold sweat in her palms, and she thought that what Yu Zhengyan said was a lie to her.
Ah Jian hugged her and walked quickly back to her dormitory, her hands and feet had been very cold, and she had not slept well all day. On the second day, he had a low-grade fever in a daze.
Empress Nanzhao and several of her brothers came to her, her illness, I don't know how many people's hearts are affected, but Yu Zhengting did not come, after Yu Zhengyan's accident, the Yishui King can only find a candidate who can ascend the throne in the future, and lead him to deal with the government together.
Although Yu Zhengting's temperament is a little anxious, he has always been responsible for doing things, and if he grinds it again, this throne can be handed over to him with confidence.
"Why is this burning again?"
Empress Nanzhao anxiously looked at the imperial doctor who was checking the pulse on the side.
"The seventh princess is suffering from the wind chill, so she has a low-grade fever." The Imperial Physician replied with his head bowed on the side.
"She stayed well in this dormitory, how could she suffer from the wind and cold, did the imperial doctor take the wrong pulse?" She frowned, not quite believing the Imperial Doctor's words.
"The old man asked himself if he had the wrong pulse, whether the seventh princess was affected by the wind and cold, and asked the maid beside her to know."
The Imperial Doctor rolled his eyes and found a staircase for himself.
Empress Nanzhao sighed heavily and looked at Ah Jian who was standing on the side, "What's going on?" She snapped.
"Back to the queen's mother, last night the princess said that she was very depressed in her heart, and she wanted to go out for a walk, so the slave maid helped her to walk in the courtyard, and she suffered from the wind and cold if she didn't want to."
She snorted, not daring to tell the truth.
"Ah Jian, if you don't tell the truth, you will be beaten in a while." Yu Zhengye, who was standing closest to her, could tell at a glance that she was lying, and he could see every subtle look on her face clearly.
"The slave is telling the truth!"
Ah Jian looked at him unconvinced, and Yu Zhengye had always come to her the most.
"Okay, let's go get a board first." Yu Zhengye immediately spoke.
"..."
Ajian pleaded with Empress Nanzhao.
"Ye'er is right, it's time for you to be beaten up, don't tell the truth soon!" This time, the always kind queen did not stand on her side.
"Princess, she's going to the prison to ask the fifth prince for questioning." Ah Jian twisted his fingers, and had to tell the truth.
Empress Nanzhao's eyebrows twisted, remembering what the Yishui King said, she must have been uneasy, so she ran to the prison to question Yu Zhengyan.
Then, she raised her eyes and glared at Ah Jian, "You know that the princess's illness is not well, and you don't stop her, and you still mess around with her!" β
"Queen Mother, the slave knows that she is wrong..."
Ah Jian, who has always refused to bow his head, can only obediently admit his mistake at this moment.
"If there is a next time, you will feel good!" She reprimanded sharply.
"Yes."
Ah Jian immediately agreed.
A maidservant girl ran in outside, and Queen Nanzhao was slightly blessed, "Returning to the queen's mother, the prince and her wife came to the palace, saying that they wanted to see the princess." β
Empress Nanzhao raised her eyes slightly, and then said, "Call the two of them in." β
"Yes."
The handmaid bowed her head.
Yan Shiqing and Lin Chao singers both brought things into Yu Qiqi's bedroom, and they only learned the news of Yu Qiqi's return to Nanzhao early this morning, and they accidentally fell ill.
"The Queen."
Yan Shiqing led Lin Chaoge and saluted her.
Empress Nanzhao glanced at him, and then looked at Lin Chaoge standing next to him, and couldn't help but feel a touch of regret in her heart, since Yu Qiqi was a child, she knew that Yan Shiqing was interested in her, but Yu Qiqi has always been a nonsense character, and the headquarters took him to heart, if she had married him early, how good it would have been.
"Sit down."
She asked the two maidservants to bring up the brocade stool and lay it behind the two of them.
"Niangniang, this is the ginseng that my husband and I brought, which can replenish the body of the seventh princess." Lin Chaoge said a word to her, and then presented the ginseng in his hand to the maidservant on the side, very knowledgeable and polite, which made people happy.
"You two have hearts."
Empress Nanzhao had a smile on her face, and when her eyes fell on Yu Qiqi, there was a touch of sourness in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
"Seventh sister, her body is out of the way, right?" Yan Shiqing is still used to calling her the seventh sister, but she still can't change it.
"I had a high fever a few days ago, and I had a low-grade fever this morning, which is really not worry-free, but fortunately, here, Bengong and several of her brothers can take care of her." She sighed.
Yan Shiqing heard the meaning of her words, thinking that Yu Qiqi was the Nanzhao who returned to Nanzhao after something happened between him and Nangong Yan, thinking of her child's death, he couldn't help but feel a little clear in his heart.
Yu Qiqi's eyelashes moved, and he slowly opened his eyes and saw Yan Shiqing and Lin Chaoge, "Brother Qing, why are you here?" β
Her breath was faint, and her eyes were tinged with surprise.
Hearing her voice, he hurriedly raised his head and narrowed his eyes, "I heard that you are sick, so we will come to see you." β
"You see how much the prince and his wife have a heart, you can have a good chat with them." Empress Nanzhao stood up, knowing that they had something to say, and asked the sons standing in front of the bed to take her out of her dormitory.
Yan Shiqing and Lin Chaoge stood up and sent her away with a smile.
"Seventh sister, what's going on?" After they walked away, Yan Shiqing dared to ask Yu Qiqi who was lying on the bed.
She stretched out her hand to Ah Jian and asked her to help herself up, Lin Chaoge leaned forward to help, and took a soft pillow for her to cushion her back.
"It's a shame to say, this time I went back to Nanzhao to track down the death of my child." She was silent for a while before telling Yan Shiqing the truth.
Yan Shiqing and Lin Chaoge's eyes widened, and their faces were stunned, "You mean, that incident has something to do with the people in this palace?" β
She nodded, her words gloomy, "It was my fifth brother who did it." β
Hearing this, the shock in his eyes became more and more intense, and after hesitating for a while, he told Yu Qiqi about the nightshade, "Seventh sister, there is another matter, I think I should tell you about it." When I lived in Yunshui Pavilion, I found a bottle of nightshade incense in it, which was poison in the Western Chu royal family, but only your fifth brother lived in Yunshui Pavilion. By chance, your fifth brother told me that it was the poison he used to collude with the king of Xichu County to go to Yanjing to kill Shen Feihong, but he didn't succeed later, and Nangong Yan threatened him at that time and asked him to act with him. β
At this moment, Yu Qiqi's face changed immediately, what he said was exactly the same as what Yu Zhengyan said, but he didn't know that the scene where Nangong Yan asked Yu Zhengyan to play was to put musk in her agarwood.
Her hands clutched the futon.
"Seventh Princess, are you okay?" Lin Chaoge was worried about her and hurriedly asked.
"No, it's fine..."
Yu Qiqi looked back, and the words he said were no longer sentenced.
Later, when Yan Shiqing and Lin Chaoge said something more, she couldn't listen to it at all, and her heart was in a mess.
It wasn't until they were gone that Ah Jian walked in from outside, holding a decoction in his hand, to feed her.
"Send someone to send a letter to the emperor and ask him to come to Nanzhao." She swallowed the bitterness in her throat, the persuasion of the Wing Water King and the Empress Nanzhao last night failed to make her make up her mind, but this will, Yan Shiqing's words made her no longer able to firmly believe in Nangong Yan.
"Okay, princess, you drink the medicine first." Worried about her body, Ah Jian handed the decoction in his hand to her mouth.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, Yu Qiqiyi pushed away the medicine bowl in her hand and looked at her with angry eyebrows, "Can't you hear what I said?" Send someone to deliver a letter to the emperor, immediately! Right away! She roared at her, her eyes scarlet.
"Yes."
Ah Jian glanced at her anxiously, immediately agreed, and went out to find someone to send a message to Nangong Yan.
She sat on the soft couch, looking at the figure of Ah Jian running out, and the remaining fragments on the ground, her body couldn't stop shaking.
After a while, after the matter was done, Ah Jian ran back again, with a new bowl of decoction in her hand, and the back of her hand was still stained with red marks, and the decoction that had just been knocked over by Yu Qiqi was sprinkled on the back of her hand.
She didn't say anything, just carefully waited for Yu Qiqi to drink the medicine.
"Let's clean the wound first." After lying down, Yu Qiqi turned his back and said softly.
"It's out of the way." Ah Jian was stunned and replied to her.
"Hmm."
She let out a soft reply, and closed her aching eyes. In the past few days, her temper has become a lot more irritable, Ah Jian has been by her side and tried her best to do things for her, she has never yelled at Ah Jian like this, just because of Nangong Yan.
Nangong Yan has been waiting for news from Yu Qiqi in the palace, and after a few days, he has never seen Yu Qiqi send someone over, he thought that she would not send someone.
But on this day, after he finished dealing with the government affairs, Chu Peiyu walked in from outside and stood behind him to reply, "Your Majesty, the queen mother sent someone from Nanzhao." β
He stood with his hands in his hands, staring at the temple shrouded in sunlight in front of him, and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Call someone in." β
"Yes."
Chu Peiyu walked out and called the guards who came from Nanzhao in.
The guard walked up behind him and kowtowed to him, "Your Majesty, our princess said that she has something important and wants you to go to the Nanzhao Palace in person." β
"You go back and tell her, and when I have explained the affairs here, I will rush over, it won't be too long, tell her to wait for me." He turned around and stared at the guard in front of him.
"Yes."
The guards got a reply and immediately rushed to Nanzhao.
"Go and call Shen Feihong and Gu Xia over." Finally, when Chu Peiyu came in again, he opened his mouth and said to him.
Chu Peiyu frowned, "Let's go." β
What Nanzhao's guards said, he heard some of it, Nangong Yan would call Shen Feihong and Gu Xia into the palace, and he thought that he should hand over the court affairs to the two of them to deal with.
When the sky darkened slightly, Shen Feihong and Gu Xia both came to him.
"You can't tell you a word about what I'm going to say to you next." Nangong Yan sat on the bench, his palm slowly turning the teacup in his hand.
"Yes!"
Gu Xia was the first to agree, and then Shen Feihong followed. Nangong Yan was wrong, he could see it.
"In two days, I will go to Nanzhao, and then the imperial uncle will follow me and bring this." In his other palm, he took out a talisman and spread it out on the tea table.
Shen Feihong glared, "You, you wantβ" He swallowed his saliva, and didn't dare to say the next words.
"Whatever I want to do, you just have to do what I tell you to do." His eyes were locked tightly on him, and his words were full of coldness.
"But Qiqi she..."Shen Feihong didn't know what to do, he pulled Gu Xia's sleeve and asked him to say a few words.
"Nanzhao has an agreement with us, and it was also a war surrender country at the beginning, wouldn't it be bad to do this now?" Gu Xia hesitated for a long time, and persuaded him embarrassedly.
"You have your own things to do, so you don't have to rush to help Nan Zhao speak." Nangong Yan glanced at him, his face was full of majesty, and he couldn't help but shrink his neck.
After that, he continued: "You must always be on guard in Yanjing, I have been watched by people on the side of Western Chu, and when I leave Yanjing, as soon as the other party finds you, you will lead troops to Western Chu, quell the rebellion in Western Chu, and uproot the old troops that were not uprooted in Western Chu before." β
Gu Xia's face changed, and he hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Yes!" β
"Remember what I said tonight, and get out." He didn't want the two of them to stay here too long, the longer they stayed, the more likely they were to get into trouble.
"Your Majesty..."
Shen Feihong still had something to say, and after being stared at by him, he also followed Gu Xia out. Nangong Yan's arbitrariness is not something he can persuade, this is not the first time.
He remembered that the last time he was outside the palace gate, he met Nangong Yan and sent Yu Qiqi away, and it turned out that his plan had been laid out a long time ago.
Outside, Shen Feihong glanced at Chu Peiyu meaningfully, he didn't understand what it meant, he just felt that his expression was complicated, and he didn't say anything when he had something in his throat, and finally just watched them go down the bluestone steps together.
Nangong Yan said that what he said just now did not allow them to reveal half a sentence, and Shen Feihong didn't even dare to look for Liu Monian.
Yu Qiqi sent someone back to Yanjing to find Nangong Yan's news, which reached Tang Yiyi's ears, Mei'er's expression was slightly grim, and she asked her: "Princess, do you want to find the former subordinate of the county prince, how can you say that she gave birth to a daughter for the county prince, and she is also from Western Chu, so she should want to make a contribution." β
Mei Lian's skills, Mei'er has heard of her, she has always been the best one under the hands of the king of Xichu County, but few people in the outside world have seen her, but she has secretly helped the king of Xichu County to do a lot of things, and she is his most powerful subordinate.
"Don't." Her thoughts were rejected by Tang Yiyi, "She has already turned against Uncle Huang, besides, Nangong Yan also saved her, even if she is from Western Chu, I'm afraid she won't want to help us." β
"Well, listen to the princess." Mei'er lowered her eyes, secretly regretting the loss of a capable helper.
"Tomorrow, as soon as Nangong Yan leaves Yanjing, you will go to the barracks and call the general back, just say that I am not feeling well, and let him come back to see me."
She hooked her eyes, and there was a sly look in them.
"Slave understands!"
Mei'er nodded and left in a hurry.
After explaining the affairs of the court and politics, Nangong Yan set off to Nanzhao, only bringing Chu Peiyu and a few guards.
Liu Monian found Shen Feihong, with a review in his eyes, "This is good, what is the emperor going to Nanzhao to do?" He handed over most of the affairs in the court to Liu Monian, and Shen Feihong didn't touch it at all.
"Didn't he say it, the queen mother called him over, maybe there was something." Shen Feihong found an excuse to avoid him and didn't want to stay with him longer.
"Okay, can he fool other officials in the court with his few words, fool me? You know what I'm asking? β
He still followed closely behind Shen Feihong, glanced at the officials who were scattered back and forth around him, and whispered in his ear.
"I don't know, I only know that it was really Nanzhao who was asked by the queen mother, and I don't know anything else." He bit his mouth, unwilling to tell him half a word.
"Well, if you don't say it, forget it, I'll know when the time comes." Liu Monian knew that he was in trouble, so he didn't ask any more, he carried his court clothes and hurriedly left before him.
Shen Feihong walked a few steps, then stood in place, looked at Liu Monian's slightly angry figure, sighed, and then continued to walk down the steps.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, he went to Gu Xia with the talisman given by Nangong Yan, and Gu Xia allocated him an army of 200,000 to stand by in the Yanjing military camp.
As soon as Nangong Yan passed through Xichu, Mei'er went to Vice General Liu's military camp and told him that Tang Yiyi's body was unwell, and the medicine prescribed by her husband was wrong, and asked him to hurry back to see her.
Remembering the wife in the mansion, where can he stay in the barracks with peace of mind, after three or two sentences of explaining the things in the barracks, he followed Mei'er back to the general's mansion.
Tang Yiyi was lying on the soft couch, her face was haggard, her lips were pale, and she looked seriously ill at first glance. β
"Help me up, I want to lie in your arms." Tang Yiyi didn't listen to his words, and his eyes showed a little attachment.
I haven't seen her for a few days, and Vice General Liu has already thought of her crazy, and at this moment, he can't help her soft words, and he immediately takes her into his arms.
As soon as he leaned in, Tang Yiyi snorted lightly, "General, your armor gives me a headache." She frowned.
Vice General Liu reacted at this time, immediately took off the heavy armor on his body, and threw it into Mei'er's hand, Mei'er caught it and turned around and hung it on the screen.
"You're in such a hurry this time, have you explained everything in the barracks? On the way back, is there an entourage to escort you? β
She lay in his arms, asking intentionally or unconsciously, her voice faint.
"As soon as I heard the news of your illness, I hurriedly explained the affairs in the barracks, and rushed back, where do I still have the heart to bring any retinue."
He rubbed her delicate arm, his words full of pity.
"That's good, no matter how sick Yi'er is, you must not mess up the military affairs in the barracks, and there are military talismans, you must bring them." Knowing that he cherished his official position, Tang Yiyi specially mentioned this layer.
"Don't worry about me, I'll take the talisman with me, the key is your body, if something happens to you, I'm distressed."
His hand on her arm tightened a little.
Tang Yiyi nodded, but her eyes glanced at Mei'er, and then, she raised her head at him, "General, Yi'er is tired." β
"Okay, then lie down."
Vice Admiral Liu held her head and asked her to lie down, but her hand suddenly pulled out a dagger from under the pillow, and the dagger glowed with white light, and stabbed him in the heart.
His eyes turned pale, his body dodged to the left, and he was stabbed in the air by her, she twisted her eyebrows, and immediately attacked him again, Vice General Liu grabbed her wrist with one hand, "Yi'er, I treat you so well, you still want to kill me?" β
"You know I want to kill you?" Tang Yiyi twisted his eyebrows, and a burst of consternation crossed his eyes.
"You had this idea on the night of the candle night in our cave room, and that's what it is, right?" In his hand, he held up the talisman he had brought with him.
"If you know, why haven't you dealt with me all this time?" She gritted her teeth, not a hint of emotion on her face.
"That's because I always have you in my heart, and I thought you would change your mind for me, but I was wrong."
He put away the talisman in his hand, and there was still no resentment in his eyes when he looked at her, only regret.
Suddenly, there was a tingling sensation behind him, and he looked down to see that the same dagger was plunged into his heart, and the tip was still bleeding.
"You're wrong!"
Tang Yiyi tore off his hand, he couldn't stand steadily, and took several steps back.
Layers of sweat beads flowed from the forehead of Vice General Liu, and he shook Mei'er behind him with palm power, and was about to run outside, Tang Yiyi caught up with him, and stabbed him in the back again, he grabbed the door of the door frame, slowly moved down, and the whole person fell down.
She coldly condensed his eyes that did not close, snatched the talisman in his hand, and escaped from the house with Mei'er, as soon as she left the general's mansion, the old forces from before hurriedly came up to her.
"Follow me, let's go to the barracks first, and then, and then fight back to Yanjing together!" When she was in the Yanjing Palace, she sensed that Nangong Yan had the intention of attacking Nanzhao, she just wanted to watch them fight with the snipe and the clam each other, she wanted to reap the profits of the fisherman and avenge the revenge of Xichu!
"Yes!"
Mei'er led them, turned over on the horse together, and followed behind Tang Yiyi.
As soon as she turned her eyes on her side, the people sent by Nangong Yan immediately rushed back to Yanjing and told Gu Xia the news. At that time, Shen Feihong had not yet moved, and watched him rush to quell the Western Chu Rebellion with an army of 150,000.
He gathered his mind, and Nangong Yan really expected things like a god.
But before he could recover from him, he received a message from Nangong Yan telling him to leave for Nanzhao. He put away the talisman in his hand and went to Nanzhao with the 200,000 army that Gu Xia allocated to him.
At that time, Nangong Yan had been in Nanzhao for a day, and as soon as he got there, he was taken to Yu Qiqi by Ah Jian, her face was very bad, and she knew at a glance that she must have had a serious illness, "Are you sick?" It was the first thing he said to her, standing in front of her.
"I remember, you once asked me, if you do something sorry for me in the future, will I not let you go? At that time, I touched your heart and told you that it would not be. I called you here just to ask you, our child, did you instruct my fifth brother to harm him? β
Yu Qiqi raised his head to look at him, did not reply to his words, just stared at him.
Ah Jian was still standing on the edge of her soft couch, and after seeing that the atmosphere was not quite right, she retreated first, and as soon as she went out, she bumped into Chu Peiyu's sharp eyes.
"What's going on these days?" On the way to Nanzhao, he noticed that something was wrong, but Nangong Yan didn't reveal half a word to him.
At this time, seeing Ah Jian standing in front of him, he could only open his mouth to ask her.
"This time, the princess called the emperor over to ask him if the death of the eldest prince was related to him." Ah Jian walked to the edge of the pillar and looked at the dark night sky in front of him.
"How is that possible?" Chu Peiyu immediately tightened his brows, if Nangong Yan did such a thing, he should have heard of it, but during that time, he was busy stabilizing the hearts of the people of Yanjing and recovering Western Chu, how could that matter to him?
Ah Jian smiled bitterly and turned his head towards him, "You don't believe it, do you?" Even I didn't believe that I used to hate him so much. β
There was a bitterness in her heart, how much she had targeted Nangong Yan before, Chu Peiyu also saw it in her eyes, but when Yu Zhengyan said that this matter was instructed by Nangong Yan, she actually didn't believe it, it can be seen how high Nangong Yan's ability to hide people is.
"There must be some misunderstanding in this." Chu Peiyu withdrew his eyes and lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Ah Jian's eyes.
"I don't want the princess to be sad either." She lowered her eyes too.
Since the relationship between Yu Qiqi and Nangong Yan has eased somewhat, she has seen the smile on Yu Qiqi's face, if this matter is really Nangong Yan's doing, she really can't imagine what she will become.
In the inner hall, Nangong Yan stood in front of Yu Qiqi, staring at her, and then sat down in front of her, "These words were all said by your fifth brother?" β
"He said that when you promised him to help him hide the news that Shen Feihong was not killed by him, he would cooperate with you to act, and that scene was the play that killed our children, wasn't it?"
Yu Qiqi clutched the futon tightly, gritted her teeth, and the bitterness in her throat surged up, almost making her speechless.
"It's not. In that scene, I asked him to go to the king of Xichu County and tell him that his uncle had been killed by him, so that he would let down his guard and raise troops against Yanjing. β
Nangong Yan's eyes did not have a trace of dodging, and her face calmed back to her words.
Yu Qiqi looked at his deep eyes, hesitated a little, and after a long time, he asked, "Really?" β
"I didn't lie to you about that. Besides, when I knew that the child in Wan Niang's womb slipped off by herself, you know how angry I was, and now the child in your womb is also my child, how could I do such a thing? His face was moved, and his words were full of distress.
"It's difficult, could it be that the fifth brother is because he has a grudge against your coercion, that's why..."
"However, your fifth brother has always been your family, and now that he has been imprisoned, Qiqi, let's let him go." He took her cold hand and softly comforted her.
